Campy, old girl, I’ve just read your post
And, seeing your U-turn, I think you’re the most
And BigDave’s comments were perfectly clear
They were meant as compliment and seem so sincere.
Bees, your word play on crosswords and cross words
I’d be so reluctant with you to cross swords
And as to your contribution, Caravaggio
Your short, subtle rhyme was the right way to go
And Tina, (young) Tina, I loved your reply
Your poetic plaudit left me on a high
And so for this effort don’t give me the bird
It’s just my attempt to have the last word
AMEN
